:23:00
I can't help noticing
you go over and over your drawings...
:23:03
and often as not, you throw them away.
:23:05
What Mother means is, we'd hate
to see you keep struggling, Vincent...
:23:10
only to realize in the end,
it was just another failure.
:23:12
Maybe he could visit Cousin Mauve
in The Hague. He's a successful artist.
:23:16
Ask him his opinion of your drawings.
I'm sure he'd be glad to help you.
:23:20
I'm not ready to show my work to Mauve.
When I am, I'll go to him.
:23:30
I'm sorry, Vincent.
:23:33
- How's Jan?
- He's all right. Thank you.
:23:40
I'm glad you're here, Kay.
:23:43
Please, Theo, send more paper
and drawing ink.
:23:46
I'm afraid I quickly used up
what you sent last month.
:23:49
As I work at my drawings day after day...
:23:52
what seemed unattainable before...
:23:55
is now gradually becoming possible.
:23:57
Slowly, I'm learning
to observe and measure.
:24:01
I don't stand quite so helpless
before nature any longer.
:24:09
Come on, Jan, you rascal.
:24:15
I know there's still something
harsh and stiff in my style.
:24:19
Although, to tell the truth, I believe
the presence of Kay here this summer...
:24:25
is beginning to have a softening influence
on my work.
:24:29
Time for your nap, now.
:24:36
There we go. Cover you up.
:24:45
He fell asleep almost as soon
as I put him down. Thank you.
:24:48
He's getting to be such a boy.
:24:50
It's been a wonderful summer
for him here.
:24:53
It's been a wonderful summer.
:24:56
- How did it go today? Well?
- When you're with me, it always goes well.
:24:59
I'm glad, Vincent.
